Ominous Clouds

Jån Vinoelst Enveloping the listener in gloomy atmospheric soundscapes that seem to draw heavily from both the darkness and the nuanced storytelling of 80s new wave and post-punk traditions, CryptoChroma showcases his adeptness at crafting music that feels both intensely personal, thought-provoking as it is emotive and expansively otherworldly. The tracks range from ethereal and introspective to more rhythmically driven pieces, all the while maintaining a cohesive sound that is distinctly Cryptochroma's. Favorite track: Drifting Vessel.

about

CRYPTOCHROMA is a one man project from Sint-Niklaas (Belgium). Jan Vinoelst started composing in the early nineties and performed in bands like Cluster M13 and Messier 39. The music is heavily based on analog synths, obscure atmoshperes and darker contemporary themes. Often inspired by new wave music from the eighties CRYPTOCHROMA makes his way in a wayward and lonely fashion.
